Happy 2nd Building Anniversary, TinyHouse43!

I just lost over 2hrs of writing and a really cool slideshow I was putting together of highlights from the tiny house being built since May 14th makes two years to the date since we picked up our Barn Raiser and started our tangible tiny house journey. I do not have the mental bandwidth to even come close to rewriting it all (#emopost), but here are the highlights:
• Chose a Barn Raiser because we don’t have a cadre of local friends/family to help with framing and wanted the peace of mind that came with professional tiny house builders doing the heavy lifting – a perfect solution for two busy parents 🛠
• Picked it up 5/14/14 in CO, brought it to TX to build, moved in 10/9/15 in CO, and are presently back in TX doing the finishing work and changing some things as well; end game for Washington state has never changed despite setbacks 💸
• Started blogging as a way to journal our experiences and deal with the death of my mother a few months prior; don’t make a living with our tiny house (have earned a gallon of Penofin and $0.27 from it – #caniretirenow), so we share our story because we enjoy doing so and hope others learn from us; almost always a positive experience, and for that we are most thankful to our readers 📝
• Still feel a bit like outsiders in the #tinyhousetribe because we aren’t super self-promoters and can’t be as visible in the community as we would really like to be, but so grateful to have met/talked to such a wide variety of people from all over the world all bound by our crazy love of all things tiny house 💜
• Thankful for everyone who has followed along our journey no matter when you caught up to us; drop us a line if you’re ever in the Dallas area for a possible tour 📸
• Celebrating our tiny house’s 2nd anniversary since building began with some website housekeeping, including new photos and a vow to finally integrate our WordPress blog fully for easier use 🍾
Truly, THANK YOU for all your support, kind words, suggestions, comments, and general awesomeness!!! We look forward to sharing the next chapter of our tiny life, and we hope you’ll share your own progress as well!!
All the best,
Meg, Brand, and R.A.D
